Sermorelin is the first 29 amino acids of GHRH, the shortest fully active fragment. It stimulates pituitary GHRH receptors to release GH.

Used intravenously as a diagnostic test for GH deficiency, though a normal response cannot rule out hypothalamic causes.
In some prepubertal children with idiopathic GH deficiency, height velocity increased significantly over 12 months, with limited data to 36 months.

Was FDA-approved (Geref) but the branded product was discontinued; it is now mainly compounded or sold for research.
Listed as prohibited in sport by the World Anti-Doping Agency.
